Hoist By Our Own Petard Exhibition

Five hats in exhibition that is happening NOW (if you are reading this between Friday 19th October 2012 and Saturday 27th October 2012) in Islington Mill, Salford, as part of the Free for Arts Festival in Salford and Manchester.












Thanks be to curators Pascal and Lauren for errecting the hats, and for asking me to take part in the first place. They also let me write an essay on art and labour which is in the exhibition guide.

Graphical memoir of the acrid lactations and chastity potatoe tour of the U.K in July 2012 in full



the acrid lactations and the chastity potatoe toured the u.k this summer. This 63 page comic diary, written and drawn as we wended our way round Albion, is a testament in HB to the music, the mega buses, and the memories from that week. Mostly, it seems to chart the strange and wonderful world of conversations that took place between Luke Poot and David Birchall. There are five copies left in my possession, one of those could be yours for £2.50. my email address is soo.fitz@gmail.com if you want to haggle in private.

Acrid Lactations tape "the dazzling quad of roughmuscle" on Total Vermin

Two unrelated facts: This picture is based on a section from a tapestry held in the Burrell Collection in Glasgow called the Bible Tapestry. It is from Germany and is dated between 1505 and 1550. There is a place in Glasgow called Roughmussel.

And release. New Acrid Lactations tape "crude paintings on porcelain" on Total Vermin

New Core of the Coalman Tape 'Stain' released by Total Vermin

Acrylic ink drawing photocopied a bunch of times, then each photocopy is individually marbled. The marbling ink kit was from Germany, I bought it in the Bethany Shop in Stockbridge, Edinburgh for £3. Such a bargain. I have since bought oil based marbling inks but they are nowhere near as good.
